Establish your customer's placement requirements for their new server.

Design and establish your placement requirements and create your proposed system using:
a. SPT for planning and eConfig for order creation
Or
b. eConfig to define both placement and order creation. This assumes you have completed placement planning prior to use of eConfig.
c. Final planning and design of your system must be completed prior to ordering the server.

Submit your order to IBM.

(US Business Partners and Distributors end here)

Record the IBM plant order numbers that are assigned and returned to you.

The eConfig created _.cfr output file (CFReport) must be attached to the LPAR/CSP Order Completion Form.

Do not attach the SPT created _.cfr file to the Order Completion Form. Only the eConfig created and validated _.cfr file contains the required placement information.

Submit the Order Completion Form

If you change the order, the placement or LPAR design, you may be required to resubmit both the order and the CFReport (_.cfr). This insures correct placement definitions are provided to IBM manufacturing. The marketing configurator (eConfig) output and your order must be kept synchronized.
